That's it. I've decided that once most folks are in bed, I'm going to sit near my laptop and fire up ME1. I really need to shoot some damn geth in the head right about now. I was in a good mood for real world reasons. I still am, now that I'm calmer. I'm not going at being angry nor do I enjoy it. Oh, I still plan on writing the ME:A team a polite letter, but I'm not going to rage. One of my poor friends sent me a PM with the bad news. I cursed more in that PM than I usually do online in a week. Thankfully, she understood. When you do write that letter, could you give the link for the rest of us to do the same?

Erm... guys? I really REALLY don't want to revive the flames of rage, but there's a new small piece of contradictory info. Sorry if this has been posted before. Nah, troll is trolling. He's gamespot reviewer who probably mistook friendship for romance. Besides, he should know better: as always vids or it didn't happen! He also said he fukt Jaal with male Ryder so who knows at this point. Maybe it truly is '' 9 flirts, sex in a vehicle, no homo '' situation

I mean in all the reviews I've read no one has brought up SJW's as a reason to rate the game lower You would think that they have a gay parade in the game if you read Youtube comments. With, like, People dressed as magenta penises.

I've stolen the idea from ash to have the † in my name (and sig). It's the new 'aufgestockt' but with 100% more salt. I stole it too once I saw that you did haha It should be our collective act of defiance heh.

I usually am against insulting Bioware/EA employees and for making a case civilly so that the point hopefully can be taken more effectively without too much defense, but whoever the single individual is that decided they wouldn't announce the romances before release is an asshole. Seriously, just fuck that guy.

This whole thing has a strange cyclical beauty to it, like fractal art. The pattern has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Gay players' hopes rise, evolve, advance, and at the apex of their glory they are extinguished. "All of this has happened before and all of this will happen again."

Why would someone post Jaal's bi without proof at this late point in the game? What kind of mind fuck is that?

Actually, I'll be setting up a group PM in a few weeks, once I play through ME:A. If folks want to write letters they should, but I don't want the thread being taken over by the talk of them. I want to be able to keep this thread about romances, and not derail it into nothing but outrage.

It seems like romance disappointment is a bit more universal. My best friend (straight guy) has decided to be celibate in MEA. The process was as follows:
Cora: "tries too hard" "Can I talk to the manager haircut" Peebee: the only response I got from him was "not going to happen" Vetra: "I don't feel safe" Keri: "Wank, fake British accent" Avela: "that's it I'm going to celibate"

i hate the fact that someone on marketing is probably already putting a positive spin on this. 'well, it was a shitstorm but a shitstorm that got the gays talking! look at all those pages!!!' also i'm done with false hope i'm gonna eat some goddamn grapes and watch some goddamn hayley kiyoko on youtube.

Ok, so I am downloading Dragon Age: Origins on my PS3. Out of curiosity I typed in the male protagonist and Zevran's romance on YouTube, since I know Zevran is a bi option for male and female I think? Now unless this is a PC mod or something, this romance scene is so much better than MEA's scraps. I know it's a different team but... this was what, 2009??? If that is a genuine scene, and not a mod, then I think I've might the right choice playing this over MEA. Been trying to keep up with this thread, but there's so much going on. I just wanted to say that although I'm still extremely!! salty!! and deeply disappointed that ME:A has driven so many people away (lol can't even be happy about mai waifu, I'm too damn sad and disgusted on behalf of everyone else, FFS Bioware)... I'm glad that it's encouraging people to give DA (and their de facto inclusivity wow, much progressive, very ghey) a chance. It's worth it. P.S. Zevran is an angel. /crawls back into the salt mine Don't get me wrong, I love DA to pieces, Origins was the first game I ever played and I'll probably always cry at its soundtrack but... it's not 100% the progressive model; its race politics, and its persistent habit of using white fantasy races/magical ppl as substitutes for axis of oppression are really bad. that said next to ME's race/gender issues lmao it really is A Paragon of Greatness so (this isn't the place for talking about this lol carry on) Zevran is the best Bioware romance bar none 11110%

That's it. I've decided that once most folks are in bed, I'm going to sit near my laptop and fire up ME1. I really need to shoot some damn geth in the head right about now. I was in a good mood for real world reasons. I still am, now that I'm calmer. I'm not good at being angry nor do I enjoy it. Oh, I still plan on writing the ME:A team a polite letter, but I'm not going to rage. One of my poor friends sent me a PM with the bad news. I cursed more in that PM than I usually do online in a week. Thankfully, she understood. Last night when I finally (6amdontjudgeme) went to bed I was pretty happy. We were certain Jaal would be bi. I'd played some ME3, and okay so Miranda died but I didn't really care that much, and I saved right after buying the party supplies - ready to have my big Citadel party today and then finish the game. Firing it up and doing the party now? I don't think I can. It'd just be me and Grunt drunk rage-crying in the shower together. For the rest of eternity. "Come, oh Reapers. Bring us a quick release from this earthly torment."

What if earlier versions of the game had bi Jaal (like those French reviewers who had a copy of the game with different default face of Sara)?

Can we have an ability to rename planets because we're a Pathfinder? I'd like to rename one to "Jaal" and then say "Jaal fucked me" secretly knowing that it was an environmental hazard on this planet. But it won't matter because I can brag about it.

To the programmers, dataminers etc on this thread:
Did you look at the code of the pc version, the Origin Access one that came patched (or so I believe)?
Because we know the disk version that isn't patched had a different default face for Sara. So, could it be Jaal was patched to not be bi anymore?
Even if this dude is trolling, there was too many contrarian information regarding Jaal's romance. It's crazy.

While he seems very convincing, I think Jaal is still straight. He needs to give some proof of this claim that battles every reputable source out there.

This is some crazy shit. Ever since 3 AM eastern, this while fandom has been on fire in the bad way. Prima fucked up with the guide, the silence from devs is disheartening, and other reviewers have no conscenus on Jaal. I don't get it. I really don't. To quote Addison, "my face is tired."
